At Blackadon, our South
Devon holiday cottages provide an excellent location for
spectacular & varied Devon holidays. Our background in
catering, outdoor education, walking holidays, teaching &
business have provided many of the skills needed to run a
successful family business.
Jacky & Mark have a keen interest in the environment so we try
to operate in an environmentally friendly way. Keeping energy
consumption to a low level & recycling where possible.
Living at Blackadon Farm for nine years has been a fantastic
learning experience - “The Good Life” has been the driving force
behind our current life style with animals and attempts at
growing our own food - goats & chickens permitting! The first
photographs we have of Blackadon show just how the cottages have
developed from the shells we first saw to the holiday cottages
we offer you today.
We are creating a family enterprise as our two children assist
in different aspects of the holidays we offer you.
Jacky & Mark have spent many holidays in self-catering holiday
cottages in Devon , England and abroad.
We now believe we know the elements that can provide you with
excellent holiday accommodation, Devon is great for summer
holidays or short breaks.
We welcome suggestions from our guests on ways in which we can
make your holidays in Devon with us even better.
We even
take a cycling or walking holiday ourselves on occasion! This
year we cycled 1100miles from L&’s End to John O’Groats a
fantastic experience.
